Wordsworth is one of the poets who I've at times enjoyed reading.

Thanks Shobs for such a careful reading and finding it 'fantastic'
. It is in the doldrums that one finds one's holy grail, the will and resolve not to give in becomes strong and another door of one's personality opens hitherto unknown even to him. And by reading their experiences, I try to imbibe as also share with you all dear readers, so that who knows, I can one day myself become a Wordsworth, lol
, it is to say, come to know the worth of words, from first-hand experience.

Thank you so much for your effusive encouragement. I must tell you that I decided to read again to find out the many similarities you gave on your blog about your travails in DOLOROUS, ultimately to become a remarkable poet. So I thought this proper but intentionally did not mention your name. Therefore, I'm so happy that you could relate it so closely with your life and writing. No wonder!

I read this twice abanerjee. It is really a fantastic write. Nature teaches many things and really to achieve success and happiness even, you sometimes have to endure the pain and all that comes with it. Fantastic job abanerjee.

This is too true! We are having campaigning in my state for various offices and I read one flyer this morning from a gentleman running for governor and his statement was reflective of this by Wordsworth:
The theme of the Liberty sonnets hinged on Wordsworth’s beliefs that a nation cannot be great and free unless it possesses moral and spiritual strength. I believe they are both correct! I like the fact that he was attuned to nature! I believe a great poet must have that in their being. And since he was poet laureate of England no one should think less! I thought of blood letting when the leech collector point was offered! I can't imagine doing that! And, in my own life, a death of significance will spur one to write fantastic poetry, too! I am a fan of his collaboration with Coleridge and their lyrical ballads! [The use of simple language in poetic form] But then, you are discussing poets from my favorite era! You spoke of the death of his brother and I think death has a great impact on the poet! Also, losing two children in the same year he had to be beyond dolorous! This was good for me to read today for I am trying to put together my final installment on my personal saga and this helps to clarify a point I had been struggling with for presentation sake! Now have a great evening, I have gone on long enough! Shelly
